Repost for @Ruthiella

Another month and another #EBBR title to read or re-read! Time for all those participating to hunt down a copy. So far I‘ve been lucky that my library system has them available in ebook format.

This blast from the past is a group read available for all.

Sace I ring in every month with Encyclopedia Brown. It‘s become my first day of the month tradition. 😁 2h
Ruthiella @Sace I really look forward to this and the #NancyDrewBR each month. It‘s a mini mental vacation. 😃 1h

#EBBR

My solved to stumped ratio was particularly bad in this one! 😬 Though, IMO, none of the solutions were particularly convincing. Was the author running out of ideas, I wonder?

Also, it was unpleasant reading due to one incident of animal cruelty and racist portrayals of indigenous Americans. The fact that it was the Seminole, however, it does help geolocate Idaville as being in Florida or one of its neighboring states with a coastline.

DGRachel This one was definitely not my favorite and I‘m glad I‘m not the only one who thought some of the solved involved questionable logic. I remember thinking, “well, yes, that‘s true, but what about…”. 1w
Ruthiella @DGRachel Yes. The real mystery here is why the perpetrators confess so readily when faced with such flimsy “proof” of their crimes. 😅 1w
Read4life I‘m with you on this. I think this was the weakest in the series so far and by far my least favorite. 1w

Ruthiella @Read4life Let‘s hope the next one is better! 🤞 1w
Sace I‘m glad I wasn‘t the only one with fewer solves than usual! 1w
Ruthiella @Sace This does seem to be one of the weaker entries in the series. 1w

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Reading Encyclopedia Brown for #HappyHour tonight. My library didn‘t have Book 5 but the library bookstore had a copy for 50 cents, so I grabbed it. Since it won‘t take the whole hour, I‘ll finish up with The House on Mango Street.

Beverage is ice water (hydrating) & snack are these gummy candies. Mood is tired & sad it‘s Monday. Breathing better tonight but not looking forward to a long day of work tomorrow.

AnnCrystal 🙏🏼💝. 2w
kspenmoll Glad to hear your breathing is better but sorry for your long days ahead. Try & take care of yourself as best you can.🩷 2w

I try to make allowances for the time period in which these books are written, but the racism towards Indigenous people was too egregious to overlook and it crops up in more than one case. This is one I wish I‘d skipped. #ebbr

Ruthiella Yes, it was egregious in this one. 👎 2w

Well I‘m pretty sure I probably did better as a kid for this one. Even though I wasn‘t on my game, I still really enjoyed another chance to hang with Encyclopedia.

I‘m not in a slump, but I‘m not reading as much as usual. I‘m not going to slow down on the #EBBR though! I‘ve got my journal page ready.

@Ruthiella

Ruthiella Yay! I wish you luck in solving the puzzles along side Encyclopedia. 😃 4w

#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

I finished this one, #4 in the series a couple of Sundays ago for #EBBR & I have got to start reviewing them right when I finish or at least take notes because of course I‘ve already forgotten the 2 cases (I think) that I didn‘t get right. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ Even reading the list of cases, I don‘t remember at all. No matter, they still make for a great Sunday night #HyggeHour read.

TheSpineView Well done! 🤩📖📚 1mo
DieAReader 🎉🎉🎉 1mo
Ruthiella They slip out of my brain too unless there‘s something special about the solution that jogs my memory. 😅 1mo
